ReviewsLos Angeles Times - ...STRANGERS ON A TRAIN remains a timeless treat, a marvelous display of Hitchcock's absolute mastery of his medium and a deliciously dark comedy as well...
Additional InformationSTRANGERS ON A TRAIN, based on the Patricia Highsmith novel, quickly became one of Alfred Hitchcock's most successful thrillers and remains one of his most popular films. En route from Washington, D.C., champion tennis player Guy Haines (Farley Granger) meets pushy playboy Bruno Anthony (Robert Walker). What begins as a chance encounter turns into a series of morbid confrontations, as Bruno manipulates his way into Guy's life. Bruno is eager to kill his father and knows Guy wants to marry a senator's daughter (Ruth Roman) but cannot get a divorce from his wife, Miriam (Laura Elliot). So Bruno suggests the men swap murders, which would leave no traceable clues or possible motives. Though Guy refuses, it will not be so easy to rid himself of the psychopathic Bruno. The film is tightly paced and disturbing from beginning to end, an effect heightened by Hitchcock's inventive camera work, including a terrifying sequence shot through a pair of eyeglasses that have been knocked to the ground.

  • Very disappointing!

    Old films are often better than modern and can carry the suspense of an old fashioned Thriller! Four of us watched this when it arrived, some time ago now (am only just sending this review, when reminded!) and I’m afraid we were most disappointed. In our opinion, it was dull and boring! We were expecting more from the write-up, which had encouraged me to buy it! I wish I hadn’t invited friends to view it with us!Not

  • Murder with a difference.

    An innovative film of its time, still stands out as special, even though similar films have been made on the same theme of murder. It is the sort of film that you can keep on your shelf and watch again.
